Dry Fly leaders said they are moving five mixers and five fermenters.
SPOKANE, Wash — Dry Fly Distilling moved some of its equipment across town on Wednesday to its new building in Downtown Spokane.
Dry Fly leaders said they are moving five mixers and five fermenters. Don Poffenroth with Dry Fly said the equipment was purchased about a year ago and was manufactured in Spokane by Spokane Industries. he said the fermentation tanks have a 5,000 gallon capacity.
"So these an average output of one of these tanks would be six or 700 cases of vodka, theoretically, or 10 barrels of whiskey per tank," Poffenroth said.
He said right now, the focus is getting the new equipment in the building. Once it's in place, they'll start working on the tasting room and the kitchen.
The company announced in September 2020 that it was expanding operations into the former newspaper press building on the corner of North Monroe and Riverside in Downtown Spokane.
"This is an amazing location, it's a unicorn, I call it," Poffenroth said. "So it hits every criteria we could ever imagine. It's in beautiful Downtown Spokane, we can see the river from here. This building was built for manufacturing. And so for us it makes it a perfect spot. And it's just in the walking area where people can come see us so all those criteria make it just an amazing spot."
The space is 16,000 square feet and will a complete retail bottle shop, a full tasting room/restaurant, event space, conference room and office, according to a post on the Dry Fly Facebook page. The company has been posting updates on the renovation since the announcement.
Architect Paul Harrington of South Henry Studios is doing the renovations and it is expected to be complete in the spring of 2021.
